I really can't understand why try-catch block do not handle exception.
digit 1 is printing, so exception is accrue after it, but why nothing in
catch block?

Here is my code:
void dbSetup()
{
try
{
[...]
}
catch(Exception e)
{
writeln("Can't setup DB");
writeln(e.msg);
}
}
An AssertError is not an Exception (in the narrow sense) [1], but an
Error. Both Exception and Error [2] derive from Throwable [3].
An Error signals an unrecoverable problem. You should not try to catch
and handle them.
An AssertError in particular is thrown when an `assert` fails. In your
case the assert is in database\storage.d, line 312. A failing assert
signals means that there's an error in the program. A condition is not
met that should be met at all times.
The compiler will let you catch Error and Throwable, but you really
shouldn't do that. Instead fix your code so that it doesn't fail the assert.
